From the listing agent
In the words of Graeme McLeod, Harcourts - Helensville
The asking price is plus GST if any.
Whether you're looking for land to build on, graze, hold for the future or explore further, this 29ha bare block offers plenty to consider. With extensive frontage to a sealed road, the property enjoys a predominantly north and east-facing aspect, with a mix of easy rolling country, flatter areas and some steeper sidings. Distant views towards the Kaipara Harbour add to the rural outlook, while good fencing and a practical mix of contour make the land well suited to its current use for beef grazing and horses. For those looking beyond the immediate lifestyle or farming potential, there may also be an opportunity to explore subdivision. An initial report prepared by a surveyor indicates the potential for three titles and is available to interested purchasers on request. No subdivision application has been submitted to Council, so purchasers will need to undertake their own investigations as to what may be possible. For others, the appeal may simply be the opportunity to secure a substantial parcel of land and create something of their own. Build a new home, investigate relocating an existing dwelling, continue grazing, establish a support block or land bank for the future. The vendors are serious about selling and have based their asking price on a detailed Registered Valuation, which can also be made available to purchasers who are considering making an offer. A sealed road position and genuine options for the future. Come and take a look at what could be possible here.

Distances are from the parcel centroid to Topo 1:50k features (LINZ); site aspect is approximate, from the 1m LiDAR contours. Road frontage is a proxy — centreline intersection with parcel boundary, not a legal access measure. Confirm setbacks with a district-plan check before purchase.
